Compositional Strategy

An example below of the written structure and process for recording and composition. Exploring the Abbey rooms themselves as a type of aural architecture and also a method referring to Dunn's temporal listening, in that what is present and imagined.

Warming House:
Whilst the warming-house was used by the monks to warm themselves, the heat meant that this was an appropriate place for scribes to prepare ink for their parchment and where shoes could be greased. Bloodletting, a restorative treatment that each monk received four times a year, was also carried out here.


Imagined sounds:
Fire & Dripping

These imagined sounds will bring a tactility and a narrative focus to the tracks, interacting with the underlying palette of spacial drones.
